Write a Linux program in C called mylls which mimics basic functions of the standard Unix program ls
with option –l as in:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1494 Oct 23 2001 video_decoder.h

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11696 Oct 31 2001 videodev.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 847 Oct 23 2001 video_encoder.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4531 Oct 23 2001 videotext.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 525 Mar 15 2004 vt_buffer.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1997 Oct 23 2001 vt.h
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 345 Oct 31 2001 wait.h
